FIFA suspends the country's football federation after it refused to play Russia
The International Football Federation (FIFA) suspended the Pakistan Football Federation for failing to comply with the requirements for revising its charter. This change was to ensure that fair and democratic elections of the leadership were held. The sanctions will be lifted if the federation approves the statute proposed by FIFA and the Confederation of African Football.
In addition, FIFA suspended the Congolese Football Association, accusing it of interfering with the organization's work by third parties. In order to restore membership, it is necessary to regain full control of the headquarters and to abandon attempts to change officials recognized by FIFA and the AFC.
As reported, the Pakistan Football Federation refused to hold a friendly match with Russia in January. The organization stated that "there is no such possibility in 2025".

Before that, five national teams refused to meet the Russian team last October, which caused outrage and mockery among the fans.
